Like his post stated, "If anyone really needs a fix and doesn't feel 
comfortable with building a
fresh package from Fedora CVS with this patch applied,contact me 
privately and I'll give you
a link to my packages." I'm assuming his packages are rpms. So, it's 
just a matter of downloading the rpm & installing using the "rpm -Uvh" 
command. Haven't sent him the private email yet.
